Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?

stearns · 11-25-2015, 06:48 AM

Hmm.. I've never used priming tabs, I always just make some simple sugar using priming sugar and water then add the whole thing into the batch after fermentation right before bottling. I think the package we use is 5oz, and I always do the same amount. I guess that's the next thing I need to look into, and how it effects the ending carbonation. Is it a one tab per bottle type of thing?

I'm using the type that are 3-5 per bottle. They're about the size of a aspirin.
